Analysis of splice variants and site-directed mutants of the AMPA receptor GluR3 expressed in Xenopus oocytes has shown that lithium produces a large potentiation of the GluR3 ̄op splice variant and suggested that lithium might inhibit rapid desensitization, which is characteristic of this receptor (Karkanias, N. and Papke, R., Subtype-speci®c effects of lithium on glutamate receptor function. ...

Without visual information, human subjects are not able to maintain displacement in a straight line. This tendency to depart from linearity during locomotion is called veering. The purpose of the present experiment was to investigate the extent to which attention could modulate navigation in the absence of visual information. Blindfolded locomotion on linear pathways was assessed under three di...

Objectives: To compare postoperative morbidity and mortality rates in two groups of operated non-small cell lung carcinoma patients (NSCLC) with or without induction chemotherapy. Methods: This is a case–control study on 42 cases and 42 controls. Cases (Group A) underwent induction chemotherapy. Chemotherapy indications and regimens were variable. Control cases (Group B) were randomly selected ...

REGIA (the REgulatory Gene Initiative in Arabidopsis) is financed by the European Union (EU) (QLG2-1999-00876) and carried out by a consortium of 29 laboratories in 9 EU countries (http:// www.epsoweb.org/catalog/EU/fp5/REGIA.htm). The objective of this project is the functional characterization of transcription factors (TFs) from Arabidopsis, to obtain insight into their evolution, and the reg...

The indomitable aspect of HIV-1 infection is not that HIV-1 proviral DNA is integrated into host DNA but that it can also turn itself off, remaining invisible to drug or immune surveillance. Thus, the goals of eradication include ways to precisely excise HIV-1 DNA or wake up the silent HIV-1 provirus and eliminate the infected cells thus identified. Methods to identify and fish out the latently...
